How do I get a cgi-bin for a user

["Jonas Fornander" <jonas netwood net>]

I wonder if someone could be so kind and tell me how I can get a cgi-bin
working in a users directory. When I create a new user, their web pages will
be served correctly if they create a public_html subdirectory and put the
html pages in there. However, when I create a cgi-bin in the users
directory, set the correct permissions and run a functioning Perl script, it
will not run.

If I put the script in /home/httpd/cgi-bin it runs correctly, but I don't
want to give the users rights to the web servers root directory. I have
checked the config files for apache and read the manual but to no avail.

I'm running RHL 6.0.
